New and Important Opinions or Pulmo-
nary Experts-Can the universal Con"
sumption Be Successfully Treated!
DR. Borgeon, leading French doctor,
has new treatment for con5uiihpt acd and
sulphuretted hydrogen gases, the latter
gas carving the former into every part OF
tho throat and lungs.
This treatment, too, is directed al euects
the cause remains undlstufoeu.
What this cause is has been stdteu ny per
haps the highest pulmonary authorlIy IN
the world. l. e., the Brompton hospl1ai ior
Consumptives, in London, Eng:
This malady every year carries on from
one-seventh to one-tfth OF the enure popu-
latiOn of England!
DR.. Payne, NJ. D., Nj. H. =. T., Aonooii' 10
authority for this statement
The same or d greater proportion OF
deaths obtains in America.
DR.. Payne also says that one-haH the
total number Of deaths from an onter causes
have seeds of this disease IN the system
| which only require some irr1tantto develop!
DIR. Hermann Brehmer. an eminent Ger
| man authority, says that consumption Is
caused by deficient nutrition Oh inc lungs,
by poor blood o4 IN a;s,,,+aa
| The medical world recognizes them. The
| uric acid is the irritant IN the blood that
causes the development OF the seeds which

through the kidneys, and If they are IN the

hair-like sewer tubes of the kidneys very
easily get blocked up ana disease? diseased; ana
rifving the blood. Kidney disease may ex-

because it is deficient in nerves OF sensa-

Dip your finger in acid every day and it

! The Bro1npton Hospital investigation
showed that 50 per cent. OF the victims OF
consumption were afflicted with deranged
kidneys. which permitted the uric acid
nelson to remain in the blood and irritate
the lungs. This uric acid is always Tight
mo every vital organ, and if there be any
Inherent weakness III the lungs 1t lnevlta-
bly, causes pneumonia, cough ana consu1np-

The real cause of pulmonary troubles be-
ing so authoritatively shown to be faulty
even though unsupported action OF the KID
news, explains why, IN order to master the
dreaded consumption, one must rid the
blood of the URIC aclu lEfitan1 Whltn Ia
flames and burns up the lung substance.
For this purpose there is nothing equal to
that great specific, Warmers safe cure:
This remedy has now the favor OF medical
J men all over the world purely on 1tS lHer

are kept in natural action, consumption
and a great many other diseases, caused
bv uric acid, will not only be cured bu
will be prevented.
; When the kidney is healthy, no albumer
appears in the water, but albumen IS founc
